> Was due for an oil and filter change, and took off the old Fram Tough
> Guard and filled my baby up with Royal Purple ( only the best for my
> Dak).

> then 1/2 mile into a drive, I drop all of my oil pressure, and the check
> engine light comes on. After parking, I notice this thick trail of
> precious oil all over the road. That was soooo painful to see. My
> brand new Mobil 1 filter was spewing juice like an angry Monica
> Lewinsky. After a whole lot of walking and lugging 5 fresh quarts, I
> find the reason for the leak. The dang rubber gasket from my Fram had
> come off and I had put on the new filter over it. My fault totally.
> Then again, it's hard to see clearly under that wheel well in the bright
> midday sun. But I'm an idiot nevertheless.
